Na, not even close to new cars.

Its not a property mate😂

To be fair,they really are very good and helpful. We bought our caravan during lockdown and the rep who helped us was fantastic. He said if it wasn't what we wanted when we saw it,we could pull out of the deal anytime. Luckily we saw it and loved it! 👍👍

Yes Spain looks to me to be a better option if you are able to stay over there for several weeks at a time. Not if you want to just do weekends! The Spanish climate is much more suited to caravan life that's for sure!

Hiya, yes caravans do depreciate. Buying one is not the same as buying a second property, static caravans do not gain value. You can also privately sell your static caravan, which you can do on our website.

True. Some people get their money's worth by going to the van every weekend, but most don't because life gets in the way and there's always other things to do! You can end up spending 4 or 5 weeks in it at most depending on the naff British weather.

It's a very large waste of money just add up the cost of buying the van and the running cost with site fees over 10yrs say, then to be told your van has a 15 to 20 yrs life span and it's worth next to nothing at the end.

@grahamshaw9316 The best plan is to buy second hand and mentally write off the money you spend. Then it's not so painful if you decide you're not enjoying it as much as anticipated and want to sell!

What many people don’t seem to understand is you are not investing in something that’s going to appreciate, your are purchasing holiday time and memories if you have a family holiday abroad you’re looking at around 5k for a couple of weeks in a nice hotel, over a 10 year period many people will spend 50k and more, you don’t get any of that back. A caravan is no different to a car, it loses money the minute you buy it. Do your homework, look at family owned sites that have no maximum age limit on vans, some of these sites have vans on going back to the 1980s, if it’s your first static don’t pay daft money on a new one, look at 10/15k on used that have being well looked after, sit down and study the contract and total costs, speak to owners on the site, they will be honest. Be honest with yourself, is it the right site for you, how often will you use it. Many people comment that have never even owned a static. If you are smart and don’t just jump in but do the maths it can be an investment in those pressure memories.

Hiya, that's down to the individual park you buy with and their terms and conditions. Site fees cover the maintenance of the park to keep it in working order, maintenance is usually carried out during the closed months. There are many 12 month holiday parks around the UK, especially with the larger UK holiday park brands.

Hiya, you can relocate your caravan to other parks with the same operator or even a new operator, however, parks aren't usually fond of this as it means taking a pitch that could be used to sell a caravan. It usually comes down to demand and as the video says since the pandemic the demand for holiday homes in the UK has skyrocketed so you will find most parks prefer not to have an external static caravan moved on site. Best to talk to the park directly and see what their policy is. Hope that helps

Probably was before the price of flys went through the roof.

really? no point if i buy one?
